• Ensure appropriate safe systems of work are in place with the supply chain to manage high-risk activities (including Permit-to-Work) and support the operations team in monitoring their effectiveness.
• Conduct internal audits and compliance assessments, identifying areas for improvement and ensuring continuous adherence to best practices.
• Act as the primary point of contact for QHSEW matters, supporting the FM Team in the implementation of health and safety initiatives.
• Promote a strong safety culture by delivering training, awareness programs, and engagement initiatives for staff at all levels.
